April 2nd was not only the Melbourne GP but also my BIRTHDAY!!! After months of questioning and probing my girlfriend finally got me a present she believed was fitting. she refused to give hints and did not slip up at all.

Yesterday she gave it to me: Driver training thne 5 laps in a FORD V8 supercar around calder park!!! oh and a Dodge Viper SV-T (model) i can't wait... best girlfriend ever! i rest my case!

Hi mate.

I did the V8 drive in Feb and it was great. I also recommend doing 8 instead of 5 coz after 3 or so laps you get the hang of it and then it's really really fun.

They are awesome to drive. Not really that quick but man... slicks, suspension and good brakes! They stop and handle so damn well.

Enjoy it!

one of my mates bought an FPV GTP and also got a free ford track day at Calder Park so he brought his FPV there and let one of the V8 supercar drivers test his car while my mate was in passenger seat and he says it was such a thrill. So ye u r gonna enjoy that

I got to drive a BA GT falcon b4 they were released. Thanks to Ford Aust for the loan!

After 20mins of driving my right leg ached for 1hr just from the accelerator workout!

Plenty of power across the board and loads of fun to drive, but heaps of grip.

Who runs the day? Its ounds awesome...though i have nto seen one where you get to drive a V8 Supercar...its a tweaked and prepped V8 road car which is still an awesome experience.

I was lookign at doing the converted Auscar thing...be even better if i had a girlfriend bank rolling it http://www.fastrackracing.com.au/main.html

Lucky devil!

she has read these forums before... so i think photos are a no no! :D but i do think i will do the 8 laps. the more the merrier. I just checked the site adn yeah they seem to be slightly modded V8s rather than full blown V8 supercars. Will be fun tho. and i'll try to get pics on the day posted up.

My customer Monaro Performance builds these cars for the calder days. They are not a V8 supercar, rather a SS commodore with exhaust, cage, race seats, harnesses, Motec logger, all the vinyls etc etc etc.

Good ride nevertheless.

    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀 
    • Nah, natural progression is euro. Because, we're all gluttons for punishment. And, what's more punishing than euro?
    • That's Garrets way of saying it will manage boost itself. Give the wastegate no boost reference...
